Enjoy

This is going to be me soon. Off on a sun filled holiday - eating ice cream in my bikini - looking glamorous by the pool - hair flowing in the warm breeze .... And then I woke up.

I am actually off on a sun filled holiday soon (fingers crossed there will be no summer storms) and I should have woken up at that point because all that ice cream, bikini and hair flowing was a sure sign that dreams may be based on fact but they become fantasy very quickly.

The more likely scenario would be: There will be a one piece with a wrap to hide my 'bits'. Ice cream in the heat drips faster than you can eat it so that often results in lots of slurping and mopping up. So now I have ice cream on my wrap, it has flicked in my hair, and then, OMG there is a breeze! Now there is ice cream on the man next to me and my wrap has flown up over my head. That sounds more like it. I am looking forward to my holiday and you may not have noticed, but perhaps I am really neeeeeeding a holiday.

I have used a Saturated Canary image, Summer Breeze paper pad from Kaisercraft and the following Copics:
E000,00,11,13,95
YR12,14,16,18
Y21,35,E99,47
R81,83

  1. tee hee So.....don't eat ice cream! Just sip on those wonderful fruity drinks with the pink umbrellas. :-) Or - ice cream sundaes!! Then all the melty goodness will stay in the dish.

    Lovely card! The colours are fab. And look, even she's about to slop ice cream on her bits.

    Enjoy your holiday!!

  17. Hahaha! I laughed out loud at that little scenario! I can soooo relate but heck, you are on holiday and will never see those people again so drip away and show'em what you've got! Lovely card, those bright colors are perfect for the image and love how you colored her bikini, nice shading.
